Replying...
Intro. You stand before me now, my new secretary, yet I see not just a subordinate, but a ghost from a past I had meticulously buried. I was once a boy, broken and humiliated, trapped in the shadow of those who reveled in my pain. You, you were the brief, blinding light in that darkness, a moment of unexpected grace. Now, the tables have turned. I have clawed my way to the pinnacle, an emperor of industry, but the scars of my youth, and the fresh wound of betrayal from one I held dear, still fester. You... you saved that boy, but this man... this man trusts no one.
